Booky - Organize notes from books you read

by•
Booky lets you better organize knowledge from books you read.
Just open Booky, snap a photo of the page and highlight any phrase.
Booky automatically syncs with your Goodreads shelf and all notes you take are later searchable so it's easier to find them.

I took a picture of a book but the app crashed. I’m using iPhone 6s. Hope you can fix this because if the text recognition is really good I will have use for this app.
Maker
Hi Elias, thanks a lot for letting me know. App update with the fix will be available in the next few days :)
Impossible to take a pic with this app? There is a bug 😔
Maker
Romain, thanks for letting me know. Can you say what iPhone model you're using? I'm investigating it right now and will make sure to submit the update with the fix in the next few days. I hope you'll give the app a second chance :)
Hi 😉 My phone is an iPhone 6s. When I want to take a note with my camera, the App shuts down... Thank you for your help 😊
Maker
Hi folks, I'm the maker of Book :) I'm here to answer all the questions you might have about the app and its roadmap.
Cool idea. Any plans for android version?
Maker
Joseph, I’d love to build Android version soon but the timeline for that mostly depends on how well this app is adopted on iOS in the next few weeks :( After I get the app to the stage where most users are pleased with the design and features, I’ll get to the Android version ASAP.
Great UI/UX and Onboarding! As an avid reader, I've always wanted something like this to help me remember what I read more easily. Small thing to note *pun intended*, seems like the notes counter is not updating after adding one. Thanks!
Maker
Thanks for the feedback and reporting that bug :) Will take care of it in the next update 🙌 That would be great to hear more of your feedback after a few days of using it 🙏
Great idea and execution! I'm reading a book which appears in the app. Is there a way to add it manually?
Maker
Hi Tal, is the book you're reading visible on Goodreads? If yes, you can tap 'plus' sign on the main screen and search for the book.
Great product! I really liked the page turning animation in the onboarding flow. I saw that you can’t currently upload existing photos of books from your photo album. Would you add this feature sometime in the future?
Maker
Thanks Tim for your feedback. As for uploading photos from the photo album - you're not the first one to ask for it so I'm working on adding it in the next app update :-)
Do people still read physical books? 😅😜 I always take notes and highlight passages on my Kindle but then it all syncs with my Amazon account and I can export everything. It's very convenient. I'd suggest people who take a lot of notes start reading books digitally because it's so much easier and more effective to take notes that way and then search and find them.
Maker
Actually, when you look at statistics, physical books are still way more popular than ebooks ;) Even more - it seems the growth of ebooks is slowing down so it seems unlikely that they will entirely push over physical books. I have nothing against digital books. I think they're great in so many cases. But there are also many reasons why people prefer physical books :)
wow, mind boggling 🤯 I get physical books have *some* advantages, but digital is objectively more practical and convenient so how? 😱
Nice app, could do with a few more app store screenshots to showcase the product. Try using
Maker
Thanks for the recommendation! I will definitely check it out.
I liked the app very much, as I read on kindle too, It can be a useful feature to import my notes on kindle here, I don't know if that is technically possible.
